Opinions of this lot of ss cap eagles and skulls?
These are supposedly from a Ukrainian museum , and match the photos I’ve seen in a book on cap insignia. But thought I’d ask you guys for your opinions

What makes you say these are copies vs originals? I have this photo from a book saying these match, but I’m curious what makes you think they’re fake?

Mainly reason the unmarked or faked marked items, the eagles are not well made and differ between them
having a very light sheet metal appearance, and finally the prongs.
Another SS skull and eagle marked ES.PF, totally fake.
A defective eye can be seen from the left.
